I don't think very much. Even though there is a crapload of
spam, BT downloads makes up most of it, and I can assume 1/3rd of those BT downloads are porn.
Given that porn has driven the growth of the Internet even since the beginning (whether people want to acknowledge it or not), it wouldn't be surprising that at least 1/3 of the hogged bandwidth was porn.
